This is a unique, free-standing cottage with a yard, located in the backyard of a 1920s house on a quiet block. The cottage has two bedrooms, sized 11' 5" x 11' 6" and 11' 4" x 7' 6". It has a spacious, sunny living room, a generous eat-in kitchen with stainless steel gas range and refrigerator, a Bosch dishwasher, a front-loading washer and dryer, radiant heated floors, and on-demand water heating.
There is a landscaped yard in the front and a large yard in the back with fruit trees. The portion of the yard between the front house and the cottage is shared between the occupants of the front house and the cottage, and the portion behind the cottage is for the cottage occupants and can be used for gardening and relaxing outdoors.
The location is quite convenient: 5-minute walk to Ashby BART, 7-minute walk to Berkeley Bowl, Walgreens, Farmer's Market. It's also a short walk/ride up to the Whole Foods on telegraph and the Elmwood neighborhood on College Ave. It's a great location for commuting to work or school in Berkeley, Oakland and San Francisco, with easy access to UC Berkeley. Parking is available on the street. The cottage has a walk score of 93% and a bike score of 98%, so most if not all errands can be done within an easy walking or biking distance.
